Hi

I have some illustration done using drawing apps and exported to psd. Mainly digital handrawn artwork. So what should I do to be able to submit to adobe stock?

 

I know that psd files are not accepted, so should I flatten all my layers and export to jpg? Or there are better ways? Thanks

Check the necessary requirements.

If there are no transparent areas, you can submit the image in JPEG format, but if there are transparent areas, use the PNG format.

PNG, if they have a transparency layer, Illustrator format, if you are working with vector assets.

Illustrations (line drawings, icons, avatars, etc...) are typically created in vector graphics apps like Illustrator and saved as .ai, .eps or .svg files.

 

Photoshop is for creating raster images (bitmaps) and exported as JPEG with sRGB color space.

If you can export an SVG, you should submit that. Or, as an alternative, you could submit an EPS file, even that this is the least preferred file type for vector stock assets.
